Review of Missoula, Montana
Missoula-Friendly and Beautiful Place
-
9/16/2019
I have lived here for over 7 years now. My experience has been nothing but great! The locals are welcoming and some of the nicest people I have met. I grew up in the Midwest and it is very rare that someone is rude or disrespectful. I could not believe some of the reviews on here. I am not sure if we are living in the same town! The winters get colder but nothing compared to the midwest. That bitter cold hurts! Here is it drier which also comes with some downsides. The upside is the cold does not feel cold to me. I rarely get my winter jacket out. The roads do not get as clean as some would hope. I think this is because we are used to driving on slick roads and snow is not that big of a deal. I can only remember one snow day for the kids since I lived here. The outdoors is some of the most beautiful landscapes I have seen. I travel all over the US for my job and I rarely find a place that compares. I do know the locals do not want us to became a huge city but they are not rude to outsiders in my experience. The biggest downside is when we have fires. The smoke is awful but this is limited.

Yeah right. Give Missoula a few decades and it will turn into a slum, just like Seattle, Chicago and Detroit. Transplant cities are always the worst cities. because the new people always come in and ruin everything.
